How the students of the second triad of XIV. divizije Primary School Senovo perceive and spend their free time

Magistrsko delo Kako učenci 2. vzgojno-izobraževalnega obdobja OŠ XIV. divizije Senovo razumejo in preživljajo prosti čas sestavljata teoretični in empirični del, ki sta vsak zase zaokrožena celota, se pa med seboj dopolnjujeta in nadgrajujeta. V teoretičnem delu je predstavljen fenomen prostega čas, njegov pomen, funkcije, načela, dejavnosti, dejavniki, ki vplivajo nanj, in kako ga lahko izkoristimo. Podana je analiza učnih načrtov (UN) za pouk 2. vzgojno-izobraževalnega obdobja s stališča prostega časa. Predstavili smo tudi kraj Senovo. Empirični del vsebuje empirično raziskavo, s katero smo ugotovili, kako učenci 2. vzgojno-izobraževalnega obdobja (N = 87) OŠ XIV. divizije Senovo razumejo in preživljajo prosti čas. Ugotovljeno je, da anketirani učenci pomen prostega časa na splošno dobro razumejo. Prosti čas aktivno izkoriščajo in menijo, da ga imajo dovolj, kljub temu pa želijo biti pogosteje športno aktivni. Rezultati kažejo na to, da anketirani učenci informacijsko-komunikacijske tehnologije (televizija, radio, računalnik) v prostem času ne uporabljajo zelo pogosto, prav tako tudi malo berejo. Krožke in dejavnosti obiskujejo predvsem zato, ker pridobivajo nova znanja in so jim zanimivi. Anketirani učenci se najpogosteje družijo s prijatelji in družino. V kraju, kjer se anketirani učenci šolajo, je po njihovem mnenju dovolj možnosti za preživljanje prostega časa. Kljub obilici društev in organizacij v kraju pa vprašani v povprečju poznajo le eno izmed njih, redko jih obiskujejo, zato je toliko bolj jasen odgovor, ki pravi, da se občasno dolgočasijo.The MA thesis How the students of the second triad of XIV. divizije Primary School Senovo perceive and spend their free time consists of two parts – the theoretical and the empirical, two separate entites which nevertheless complement and upgrade eachother. The theoretical framework provides a general overview of the free time phenomenon, its meaning, function, principles, activities, characteristics which influence it, and how we make use of it. The analysis of the second triad curricula from the point of view of free time is presented here. In addition, the town of Senovo is also described. The empirical part contains an empirical research which was conducted to explore how the students of the second triad (N = 87) of XIV. divizije Primary School Senovo perceive and spend their free time. It has been established that, in general, the interviewed students have a solid grasp of the meaning of free time. They spend it actively and, in their opinion, have enough of it at their disposal. However, they would prefer to engage in more sports activities. The results reveal that the interviewed students do not make use of ICT, such as computers, radio, television, very often in their free time, and they do not read much. Their participation in extra-curriculum activities is mostly motivated by their interests and the inclination to gain new knowledge. The interviewed students spend most of their free time with friends and family. They believe that the town of their schooling offers enough opportunity for spending free time. Despite the abundance of clubs and associations existing in the town, the interviewees are in average familiar with only one of them and do not often attend them. Therefore, it is understandable that the interviewees state that they feel bored occasionally
